EU/UK TOUR DATES KICK OFF NOVEMBER 28 – SEE DATES

Today, Toronto, Canada-based punk artist ThxSoMch shares his highly anticipated debut record The Sound of You Laughing out now via Atlantic Records. Alongside the full album is the grimy, gauzy ‘A Sharp Pain’. Next month, he’ll hit the road across North America, Europe and the UK with support from re6ce–see a full list of dates below.

With distorted guitars that dominate the soundscape, ‘A Sharp Pain’ delves into the musician’s mental health and the pain of isolation. The track came to the artist faster and easier than ever before– ThxSoMch says, “This is the easiest and quickest song I’ve ever made. The whole thing took grayskies and me an hour and 45 minutes. Usually songs take me weeks. I guess it was a stream of consciousness from one intrusive thought to the next. This is a grimy, grimy song.”

Recorded over seven months in Brazil, isolated from everything and everyone he knows alongside producer grayskies, ThxSoMch poured himself into a body of work that fully captures everything he is today–it’s vulnerable, raw and made with true intention and a clear purpose. Recalling what it felt like to make, the artist shares, “It put me in the best mental place I’ve been in for a long time. No phone, no English, no sense of time—just a flow state that let me escape everything else. Creating this was like a cigarette after a long craving. I hope it can be that for someone else too—a fix, a release, something to hold onto when everything else slips. It’s the sound of acceptance and the sound of burying what’s really going on. It’s mockery and coping, choking and surviving.”

Produced by grayskies (d4vd, Wisp) and mixed by legendary producer and engineer Mike Crossey (The 1975, Arctic Monkeys) the album is as much self-expression as it is escapism, where he finds both solace and catharsis for himself and fans alike.

The fully-charged project sees the multi-faceted songwriter, producer and performer find his own sound that disrupts both rock and rap as he delivers a fast-paced, exhilarating and honest examination of the self and life’s impermanence.

Full of energy and emotion, ThxSoMch continues, “It isn’t a cure—it’s a distraction. A pause. A breath between breakdowns. Just long enough to feel okay before the weight comes back. You can’t laugh forever. You laugh until you choke. And then it’s not so funny anymore.”

Earlier this summer, the artist shared ‘Sound of You Laughing’ which took shape after musician Flawed Mangoes sent the artist various instrumentals, whose evocative guitar riff became the song’s foundation. Defiant and uninhibited, each line is delivered with the slight twinge of pain that comes with digging up the past.

ThxSoMch burst onto the scene in 2022 with viral hit ‘SPIT IN MY FACE!’ which has garnered 672M+ streams on Spotify and charted on the Billboard Hot 100 and UK Official Singles Charts. Since then, after touring the U.S., Europe and taking the Rolling Loud stage, the artist has only continued to elevate, evolve and expand his artistry and fast-growing, fervent global fan base, boasting over 414K followers on TikTok. Now, with over 1B career streams and three tracks with over 100M, he unrelentingly disrupts the post-punk, alt-rock space as he paves his own lane–unapologetically staying true to himself and his artistry like never before and preparing to reach new heights.

ThxSoMch’s bold debut album, The Sound of You Laughing, is finally out now. Don’t miss the mind-blowing live show across North America and Europe this fall–find all dates here. There’s much more to come from the rising artist–connect via Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.

ABOUT THXSOMCH

ThxSoMch is a genre-bending artist known for turning intrusive thoughts into anthems. He first caught attention with raw, chaotic tracks like ‘SPIT IN MY FACE!’ but quickly proved he wasn’t a one-note act. His music blurs the line between alt, emo, and experimental pop—equal parts violent, vulnerable, and sarcastic. After disappearing to Brazil for 7 months with no phone and no sense of time, he returned sharper, stranger, and more self-aware. His work now feels like a conversation with the part of yourself you usually ignore—dark, funny, and painfully honest.
